Ordinary Meeting – Tuesday 27 August 2019 Page 1 + MM19.14 Mayoral Minute - 2019 Regional NAIDOC Awards HPERM Ref: D19/281286 Recommendation That Council receives the report for information and the Mayor send congratulatory letters to the winners of the 2019 NAIDOC Awards. Details On Saturday, 27 July 2019, our Council was fortunate enough to host the 2019 Regional NAIDOC Awards at the Shoalhaven Entertainnment Centre. The awards are a collaborative event that is organised by Wollongong, Shellharbour, Kiama and Shoalhaven City Councils. The theme for this year was ‘Voice. Treaty. Truth. Let’s work together for a shared future.’ The Awards provide an opportunity for celebrating NAIDOC week and for promoting and recognising the talents, excellence, and significant contributions that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and their organisations make to their own and broader communities in the Illawarra and Shoalhaven regions. This event serves a very important role in promoting regional cooperation between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people, local councils and other organisations and businesses. MM19.14 On behalf of Council, I would like to congratulate the following Shoalhaven Award Recipients: Organisation of the Year: Oolong House Young Achiever of the Year (Female) Ms Kalinda Wills Worker of the Year Mr Charlie Ashby Outstanding Contribution to Reconciliation Mr Noel Butler Elder of the Year (Female) Aunty Lynn Wellington I would also like to give a huge thank you to Margaret Simoes, Aboriginal Community Development Officer, and her team on organising such a wonderful event; you should be extremely proud of yourselves.

Consider future years funding as part of the annual budget deliberations. Details Representatives of the SQAP met with me recently to seek assistance in funding the operation of the SQAP. In NSW all commercially produced oysters must be harvested in accordance with the NSW Shellfish Program administered by NSW Food Authority under the Food Act 2003 and MM19.15 Regulation 2015. This program and legislation require each estuary to establish a quality assurance program (QAP) that has established harvest zones through ongoing testing. The Shoalhaven-Crookhaven River System has seven zones. Each zone must be routinely tested for toxic algae, biotoxin and bacteria. The testing involves collection of water and meat samples, packaging and sending to NATA Accredited Laboratories for results. To their knowledge the Shellfish QAP is the only group undertaking algae and biotoxin testing in the
